Getting the most out of your Total Thigh Trainer workout
The Total Thigh Trainer offers a challenging lower-body workout that also improves
your cardiovascular fitness. You will work and tone every part of your legs--thighs,
hips, hamstrings and calves—while you exercise your heart and lungs.
The Total Thigh Trainer stride suspends you in the air while you move, so while the
forward motion closely resembles walking and running, there is no jarring impact
that might cause injury. The arcing steps that never let you touch the ground
keep your workout safe and comfortable.
The Total Thigh Trainer can be used in a scissor motion, a lateral motion, a circular
motion, and a skating motion. You will tone and strengthen your inner and outer
thighs along with your quads and calves.
Hold both handles firmly in your hands when getting on
or off the Total Thigh Trainer.
The foot pedals have a non-skid surface that offers
plenty of stability.

Look forward with your head up and balanced. In

The workout
